It’s that time of year—full of traditions, merriment, and celebrations with family and friends! Here at ONE, we’ve selected seven gifts that will bring good cheer to everyone on your list, and make a positive impact in Africa. All that’s left to decide is what you want to give as gifts, and what you should keep for yourself!
1. Holiday stationary
Send your merriest wishes to your friends and family with this vibrant holiday card set! The design, inspired by the cocoa fruit, was created by a Kenyan-based artisan in collaboration with our friends at To the Market. Proceeds from every purchase go to MarieMae business school, which empowers female artisans with entrepreneurial and business skills—so every card represents a holiday wish, and a meaningful contribution to the women attending MarieMae!
2. Shegaw scarves
Baby, it’s cold outside! This chic accessory, made by fashionABLE, is perfect for cold winter days and is handwoven from 100% Ethiopian cotton.
3. Crewneck sweatshirt
This new crewneck sweatshirt is so soft and cozy, you’ll never want to take it off! It’s a cold-weather staple that every activist on your list will appreciate.
4. FEED bag with burlap pouch
Rumor has it, Santa’s sack is a FEED Bag just like this! But it’s not just a beautifully-made bag: The purchase of each one provides a meal for 10 school children around the world. It’s made from 100% organic cotton and comes with a festive burlap pouch.
5. ONE mug
Cold days call for warm drinks—pair this mug with coffee, tea, or cocoa to give as a thoughtful package!
6. The Agatha & The Jackson beanies
Your loved one can stay bundled all winter long with these handwoven beanies!
